    Rentering Canada from the US without the PR card

    Just as Qorax mentioned! The Immigration officer also told me by Road Canada entry needs the COPR only. If flying by air, we need to get some visa( need to pay for it) from the immigration counter in the airport before entering Canada.

    Rule is that when we take 10K or more in and out of the US /Canada you need to report it to the customs. When I went for PR confirmation, the Canadian Immigration officer mentioned this. He asked whether I reported this in US counter. I said I didn't know about this and while driving I didn't...

    LANDING IN CANADA ??? -All You Need To Know.

    I was also thinking in that line, in listing my car in the imported items. If we don't import it late and try not to import another one, then it shouldn't cause a problem as such I believe.

    AvayaLenovo, You should have got a valid I-94 with the extension notice. It is there in the bottom part of I797C. That I94 and the I94 we get upon arrival should be of the same number. I am also like this. Entered US in 2007 on H1, got the H1 extended, so now have a stamped H1 visa expired on...

    What I know is that, For the automatic visa revalidation, you should be on the same type of visa with which you entered US (to get the I94). So to enter the US initially, you should have a stamped visa. When we extend that visa after the expiry, we get a new I-797C with an I-94 (both I-94 will...

    The Toronoto US consulate web site says that when we renew our H1 visa there, they will cancel existing I94. http://toronto.usconsulate.gov/content/content.asp?section=visas&document=visas_faq I came from the U.S. to renew (or apply for) a nonimmigrant visa. If I’m found ineligible can I return...

    Most probably it will be caught up with customs dept of the home country. Once the express mail leaves US, then the status update doesn't happen regularly, it may work like the normal mail. Normally Express mail is tied up to the destination country's express mail service. For example, in India...
